ROGER DALTREY, 1978

In Lynn's owns words " I drove for six hours to get to Roger Daltrey at some remote seaside locale. Dangerously hanging out my car window was a twelve-foot roll of seamless paper roll to use as a backdrop for a cover assignment from Rollingstone Magazine. 

When I arrived, Daltrey said he didn’t feel like being photographed. He wanted to go for a walk. I told him I’d follow behind and maybe along the way he’d let me know if it was all right to make pictures. Slowly, he walked down toward the water.

Since he was fully clothed, I thought he’d stop at the shoreline, but he just kept walking…into the water. I followed, holding the cameras over my head. Once his mouth was covered with water I said, “It’s OK to shoot now, right?” He couldn’t answer. "
